Sprints

PyCon Canada 2015 Sprints - November 9th

PyCon Canada Development Sprints is a day of intensive learning and development on an open source project of your choice, in a team environment. It's a time to come together with colleagues, old and new, to share what you've learned and apply it to an open source project.

The sprints will be held at the Bahen Centre starting 10am in Room 2270.

PyCon Canada provides the space and infrastructure (network, power, tables & chairs); you bring your skills, humanity, and brainpower (oh! and don't forget your computer).

lazyarray

lazyarray is built on numpy arrays and implements a simple lazy execution/evaluation mechanism. This is helpful for many data analysis applications in science and engineering. Currently lazyarray only supports 2D arrays. The main goal of this sprint would be to extend support to multi-dimensional arrays (N-D).
